Tests and Results

Blood Tests

For blood tests, please request an appointment with a nurse or healthcare assistant.

Please note, everyday blood tests will be taken between 08:00 and 13:00 with the exception of Wednesday when the last blood test will be at 12:45 as we are closed between 13:00-14:00 for training.


Urine/Stool Samples

If you have been asked to give a urine or stool sample, please ensure that they have been brought back into the surgery before 10:15. This will ensure that they will get to the hospital on the same day.

Any brought in after this time will have to be repeated ready for the following days collection.


Results

If you have provided the surgery with your mobile phone number we will be able to text you details of your blood test results, however only normal no action required blood test results will be text through. If you have not received a text after 5 full working days, please contact the surgery.
